    And we'll get to see Conor get dominated and submitted again by Khabib.

    Why a rematch?

    Khabib proved he had way too much....Even outstriking Conor.


    I never watch UFC, so whilst it makes my knowledge limited, it also makes me unbiased.



    From what I gather Mcgregor is meant to be the striker of the two correct?

    Well, what I just saw, in a boxing comparison, would be like watching Tyson Fury landing a straight right hand down the pipe against Wilder and getting the KO.

    The result will stand. Khabib made Conor tap.

    Forget the aftermath. Let's talk about the fight itself. Khabib dominated Conor, even clipped him with a hard right hand in the 2nd round before taking him down and give him a beating.

    This is one of the most dominating victories by a fighter at the top level.

    I don't think conor wants to go anywhere near this dude. Khabib will get suspended and fined. I don't know about a rematch, there's too much ugliness between them to bring them anywhere close.

    Conor spent that time 'Perfecting the Art of Boxing'.....

    He just got 'Outstriked' by a grappler.


    E.g. Fury choosing to trade straight rights with Wilder/ Wilder choosing to fight southpaw against Fury.

    In what way?

    He lost every round, was dominated by Khabib's gameplan and was losing the strike battle too.

    It was dominant.

    They need to raise the height of the cage/octogon and put a T on top so that no one can get in or out over the top, only one way in or out.

    Khabib team attacking Conor from behind after he'd just been in a fight was far worse and cowardly then anything Conor did lol, along with Khabib losing the plot jumping the fence aftewards because Conor and it appears Danis clearly got in his head

    You won't be able to see live. Its already hard enough to see with all the people and cameras around the cage. You guys gotta go to a live event, if you are not in the first 5 rows you're ****ed on seeing everything without looking at the titan-tron.

    Can we also put an end to the May/Mcgregor MMA talk too?

    "If Mayweather can strike first....."


    Cmon now, Mcgregor would kick his head off as soon as Floyd tried to get in range.

    I had 2000 pound on Khabib at LadBrokes. Can I cash out tomorrow in the shop or maybe a DQ for Khabib?
